Atwater Estate Vineyards Pinot Noir certainly lives up to the grapes exceptional heritage. The harvest is a combination of grapes from Hazlitts Sawmill Creek Vineyards and Harvest Ridge Vineyard. All of these vineyards lie on the sunny eastern shore of Seneca Lake not far from our own. This wines velvety raspberry and sandlewood mouthfeel and glorious ruby hue pair so perfectly with the bounty of fall. Pinot can be savored on its own, but is superb with game and meat, and is the best red wine to drink with seafood. - Winery
